Democratic Georgia Senator Raphael Warnock is calling out Republican North Carolina Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson over alleged comments made on a porn site years ago.

Robinson, the current Republican candidate for governor in North Carolina, is at the center of an erupting scandal over horrifying and vile comments made on a porn site called Nude Africa from an account linked to an email address of Robinson's.

The comments contain everything from illicit sexual comments to disturbing claims of being a "black NAZI," admirations of Hitler and wishes for the return of slavery. Robinson denies the allegations.

In comments on the MSNBC show Inside with Jen Psaki, Senator Warnock had choice words for Robinson, calling him "white supremacy in Blackface" and lambasting his part in a "cynical" ploy by Donald Trump to promote unfit Black candidates.

Trump endorsed Robinson in March despite his long history of strange and offensive comments, and has heralded Robinson as "better" on civil rights than Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., calling him Dr. King "on steroids."

These comments in particular seemed to make Sen. Warnock angry. He told Psaki:

“I can tell you as the pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church where Martin Luther King Jr. served, that Mark Robinson is no Martin Luther King Jr."
"He is the antithesis of everything that Dr. King represented. He is white supremacy in blackface.”

He went on to liken Robinson to Herschel Walker, Trump's hand-picked, disastrous candidate for Senate in Georgia in 2022, whom Warnock beat in a run-off that year.

Warnock characterized Robinson as the latest in what he called a pattern of Trump's. He told Psaki:

“Trump has a long history of this. He tried this in my race."
"This is not the first time he has put forward a Black candidate who is unfit and unqualified to serve with this cynical notion that somehow the electorate will be confused about who this person represents."
"The people of North Carolina deserve better.”

On social media, Warnock's words about Robinson and Trump certainly resonated.








The latest polling shows Robinson lagging behind Democratic candidate Josh Stein by 10 points.

White Nationalist Admits That Liberals Were Right About Trump Being A 'Demagogue'

Far-right pundit and white nationalist Nick Fuentes admitted on his show that "liberals were right, fundamentally" about President Donald Trump, acknowledging Trump's brand of authoritarian populism by referring to him as a "populist demagogue."

In its modern sense, a demagogue is a political agitator who seeks to advance their political goals or personal power by appealing to people’s emotions, prejudices, and hardships.

'Based On A True Story' Movies That Aren't True At All

The entertainment industry has long been criticized for their creative license when it comes to retelling history or anything "based on a true story."

Going back to the silent film era and D.W. Griffith's ridiculously inaccurate White supremacist propaganda Birth Of A Nation to Mel Gibson's Braveheart to Disney's Pocahontas, some films go way beyond creative license and careen into total malarkey.

Musk's AI Chatbot Throws Republicans Under The Bus After Being Asked About Economy

Grok, billionaire Elon Musk's very own chatbot, threw Republicans under the bus after software engineer Alex Coke asked it if Democrats or Republicans have been better for the economy in the past 30 years, only for it to answer that yes, in fact, Democrats are the winners when it comes to economic policy.

Economic policy is certainly on everyone's minds these days. A new CNN poll conducted by SSRS shows that Americans are not pleased with President Donald Trump’s management of the economy, leaving him with unfavorable ratings on what is considered the nation’s most important issue.

CNN Airs Brutal Reminder Of Trump's Previous Economic Predictions—And They Did Not Age Well

CNN came with the receipts, airing a supercut of clips from 2020 and 2024 of President Donald Trump making hilariously wrong economic predictions—a damning reel of evidence as financial markets decline and investor concerns grow over Trump’s trade policies.

In fact, Trump’s escalating trade war pushed the S&P 500 more than 10% below its record high set just last month. A drop of this size is significant enough that professional investors call it a “correction,” and the S&P 500’s 1.4% decline on Thursday marked its first since 2023.
